You made me happy for 10 minutes until I realized that's the price excluding VAT. Including if I can omit that VAT thing somehow if I purchase in another country in the EU.
A few Danish online stores state their price as being around £370 ex. shipping but incl. sales tax. Like shopitonline.dk has it listed at 3354 Danish kroner, which is ~£368. I don't know their expected shipping date or if they ship outside Denmark. But I can ask if people want to know.
Regards.
I pre-ordered at unlocked-mobiles.com for £429.89. Not sure if is the cheapest but a lot cheaper than what stores take in Sweden and UK gets the phone earlier as well.

true, but the netherlands have very cheap contract with phone.
You can get phones with a contract for much less money then when you buy them seperate
Expansys USA listed for preorder ~$600.00 but the 3G frequency as 900/2100. I thought it suppose 900/1900/2100? Plan to buy using on AT&T.
Handtec, I've ordered the 16GB version with shipping to Saudi Arabia for GBP 484.88

Be careful with that 16GB - AFAIK they are only available via network operaters, so this may be an 8GB model with an 8GB card.
i got my 16gb version from singapore at SGD$98 with the cheapest dataplan

They only ship to Germany, but I'm sure they'd make an exception if we made a larger order. 459€ is a lot less than the 650€ I have to pay here.
Sent them an e-mail kindly asking them to change their policy.

SGS2 - Unlocked Mobiles

This is the cheapest price I could find for this phone.
I was wondering if anyone has bought from here and has any feedback to give.
If not, is this site trusted and what not?
Here is the link
http://www.unlocked-mobiles.com/sim....html?osCsid=1e5e0e8996a78990b809653ff6588c22
Also, what is the VAT included in the price? I want to buy it from Australia so does this apply to me or not?
Cheers
I bought mine from there, and it arrived in Melbourne within a few days of release.
No VAT in the price I paid.
Cheers,
Luke
Yeah what the hell is the VAT, that I don't know lol.
Also, how much Australian dollars all up?
VAT (Value Added Tax) could be equated to GST in Australia. VAT, however does not apply to those who order from outside the UK, so international buyers save 20% as compared to local UK buyers. But I'm in the same boat, Unlocked-Mobiles are the only ones who seem to have stock but I haven't heard much about them

Any experience with BuySPRY.com?

It ships internationally:
http://cgi.ebay.com/New-Samsung-Gal...=US_Tablets&hash=item4cf800f0d4#ht_2480wt_905
16GB = $578 USD, not bad to import to EU.
Any comment on this eBay.com seller?
Thanks.
Also curious about this as they seem to be the easiest way to get one of these shipped to NZ.
$80 premium on the tablet and (for the UK at least) a choice of either slow and possibly-uninsured USPS mail, or extremely expensive UPS mail ($180!)
I would suggest it would be better to buy from a proper US retailer, either via a mail forwarding company, or from a company that ships internationally (e.g. Frys.com)

Have a look at mobicity.com.au
They should have stock next week and comes with a 1 yr warranty

Thanks for the Frys.com.
I ordered one, they can ship to Europe.
Shipping cost = $91 (I don't know which shipping carrier and how long it will arrive )
Total order = $591 including shipping (16GB model)
But, I don't know how much the import tax here in The Netherlands!

Anyone order from Handtec?

I recently ordered my Nexus 4 16GB from Handtec because of credit card issues.
I was just wondering if anyone had ordered from Handtec and if they were taxed from the country when importing the item. Also if anyone knows how long it will take the device to reach Canada.
Thanks.:victory:
If you ordered from Handtec then the price will be the one without VAT included £279.99. If someone in Germany for instance ordered one then they would pay the full VAT price of £334.80, as would I being from the UK. So shipping to Canada you will have the non VAT price of £279.99. I have just been to the following site http://www.dutycalculator.com/new-import-duty-and-tax-calculation/ and used Ontario as the state and looks like it could be except from import tax, but you have a try

Import tax?

Do you pay UK import tax when buying the nexus 4 from the play store?
Or is £199 +£10 postage and packing. All you pay.
It comes from Dublin.
It's billed as coming from Dublin (due to Ireland's low corporate tax rate all European transactions are routed through their Dublin outpost). Pretty sure mine had a UK postmark though
